unreal.LiveLinkComponent

class unreal.LiveLinkComponent(outer=None, name='None')

Bases: unreal.ActorComponent

An actor component to enable accessing LiveLink data in Blueprints. Data can be accessed in Editor through the “OnLiveLinkUpdated” event. Any Skeletal Mesh Components on the parent will be set to animate in editor causing their AnimBPs to run.
